The Mello-kings
Tonight, Tonight
Tonight, tonight, while I'm holding you so near,
Tonight, tonight, what I'd give if I could hear
The three little words that would thrill the heart of me--
Just whisper, "I love you, and will eternally."
Tonight, tonight, more than any time before,
This heart of mine seems to need you so much more.
The touch of your hands, the thrill of your embrace
Keep saying that no one will ever take your place.
While looking up afar,
I wished upon a star
And prayed for a blessing from above.
Now, if my wish should come true,
Until our life is through,
I'll have you, dear, to have, to hold and to love.
Well, tonight, tonight may never reach an end.
I'll miss you so 'til you're in my arms again.
With all of my heart, I declare with all my might,
I'll love you forever, as I love you tonight.

Second Annual Olvera Street Car Show
Article by.C.A
The streets of Downtown L.A.’s Historical Plaza were rumbling, not from an earth quake but from the powerful classic motors of well over a thousand flawless antique automobiles. Row after row of Califas most immaculate cars, trucks and motorcycles could be seen chilling out single file all the way down Olvera Street. This cool event was a photographers dream, with authentic Mexican American culture, vintage cars and historical buildings. None of this could have ever happened without the humble efforts of the events hosts, Old Memories Car Club and other sponsors. Special thanks and our up most respects go out to Manny "Zoot Suiter" Alcaraz of Old Memories car club, who chaperoned us throughout the event and introduced us to Old Memories God Father, President and several other Old Memories car club members.
Lowrider Evolution From Pachuco Art Revolution
Over fifty years ago, when post war pachucos sought means of expressing their rebelliousness, clothing and automobiles were the way to show the Anglo that Chicanos did it their way or hit the f*@king highway. Simon ESE, it was all about rear ends jacked up, front ends slammed down. Creased out kakis, mirror shinned Stacy Adams, and a beautiful brown chachita keeping it real by her pachuco’s side. Mess with her vato y ya te la sabes! Yeah that’s right! And guess what? Those bombitas you see creeping through the boulevard have more hevos than any fiber glass "euro" you see rolling around these days.
Yes these cars spell out rebelliousness; they're solid, sinister looking and have the same style Tin Tan put out in the late 30's and early 1940's.

Can't Keep A Good Man Down
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
He said goodbye to the angels of heaven
And He came to earth as a common man
He taught us how we could love one another
There was healing in His hands
There were those who believed and followed Him
And there were those who wanted Him dead
They thought the grave would silence Him forever
But they found out instead
You can close your eyes
You can say it's a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away, even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and feet
and they put Him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you can't
No you can't keep a good man down, no
No you can't keep a good man down
I hear you say that it all sounds crazy
It's a good story but it can't be true
How could a man who was dead and buried
Mean a thing to me and you
Here we are two thousand years later
and still the choice is just the same
You can say that you don't believe it
But it doesn't change a thing
You can close your eyes
You can say it's a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away, even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and feet
and they put Him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you can't
No you can't keep a good man down, no
No you can't keep a good man down
I can take you to the hill where they hung Him on the cross
I can take you to the empty tomb
I can tell you He's alive 'cause He lives in me
But the rest is up to you
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
You can close your eyes
You can say it's a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away, even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and feet
and they put Him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you can't
No you can't keep a good man down, no
No you can't keep a good man down
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
